Great sound, great price
No matter what you listen to, a good subwoofer will bring out the best in your music. Kenwood's advanced design and materials have given their subs a well-deserved reputation for high-quality sound and cutting-edge technology. Now their KFC-W3041 12" subwoofer lets you have great bass at a price that'll bring you a big smile.
Advanced design concept
The KFC-W3041 sub features a two-piece polypropylene cone with Kenwood's X-Motif design and patterned surface for added rigidity, so you'll get maximum punch with minimal distortion. The sub handles up to 300 watts RMS, with plenty of low-end punch to bring your music to life. This speaker works in enclosures as small as 1.25 cubic feet, and can be installed in either sealed or ported boxes. The CA-121G steel-mesh grille (sold separately) protects the sub from the daily grind. For great sound at a great price, the KFC-W3041 gives you the best of both worlds.

Features
Sealed Enclosure Applications: Kenwood recommends a sealed enclosure volume of 1.25 ft³ (0.8 ft³ to 1.8 ft³ acceptable). Sealed enclosures provide the most control over a woofer, will handle a lot of power, and provide accurate sonic reproduction, making them suitable for all types of music.
Ported Enclosure Applications: Kenwood recommends a ported enclosure volume of 1.5 ft³ (1.2 ft³ to 2 ft³ acceptable) with a 12¾" wide x 1⅜" tall x 29" long slot port. Ported (or vented) enclosures typically provide better overall efficiency than sealed, so they are suitable for use with smaller amplifiers, giving you more bass output from a given amount of power. However, this efficiency comes at the expense of very low frequency output.
Spring Terminals: The spring post terminals will accept pin connectors, single banana plugs, or bare wire up to 10-gauge.
Additional Measurements: When mounted without the trim ring, the sub has these measurements:
- Mounting Height: 0.54"
- Flange Height: 0.205"
- Frame Diameter: 12.5"

Ive ran through many speakers. This one im still breaking in but i can tell its going to hit hard. Even not having it turned half way up it hits harder then all the other ones I've bought. And I only buy Kenwood.
